Core Aeration & Soil Compaction

Core Aeration is an important and highly recommended practice for many lawns. Annual aeration for most lawns is advised. Compacted soils, high percentage of clay base or heavy use lawns can benefit with aeration twice a year. There are many benefits to aeration:
Improved air exchange between the soil and atmosphere.
Enhanced soil water uptake.
Improved fertilizer uptake and use.
Reduced water runoff and puddling.
Stronger turfgrass roots.
Reduced soil compaction.
Enhanced heat and drought stress tolerance.
Improved resiliency and cushioning.
Enhanced thatch breakdown.
